Capo 4

[Am]Jolene, [C]Jolene, [G]Jolene, [Am]Jolene
I'm [G]begging of you [Em[please don't take my [Am]man
[Am]Jolene, [C]Jolene, [G]Jolene, [Am]Jolene
[G]Please don't take him [Em]just because you [Am]can

[Am[Your beauty is be[C]yond compare with [G]flaming locks of [Am]auburn hair
With [G]ivory skin and [Em]eyes of emerald [Am]green.
[Am]Your smile is like a [C]breathe of spring your [G]voice is soft like [Am]summer rain
And [G]I can not com[Em]pete with [Am]Jolene.

[Am]He talks about you [C]in his sleep and there's [G]nothing I can [Am]do to keep
From [G]crying when he [Em]calls your name [Am]Jolene
Now [Am]I can easily [C]understand how [G]you could easily [Am]take my man
But [G]you don't know what he [Em]means to me [Am]

[Am]Jolene, [C]Jolene, [G]Jolene, [Am]Jolene
I'm [G]begging of you [Em[please don't take my [Am]man
[Am]Jolene, [C]Jolene, [G]Jolene, [Am]Jolene
[G]Please don't take him [Em]just because you [Am]can

[Am]You can have your [C]choice of men but [G]I could never [Am]love again
[G]He's the only [Em]one for me [Am]Jolene
I [Am]had to have this [C]talk with you My [G]happiness de[Am]pends on you
and [G]whatever you de[Em]cide to do [Am]Jolene

[Am]Jolene, [C]Jolene, [G]Jolene, [Am]Jolene
I'm [G]begging of you [Em]please don't take my [Am]man
[Am]Jolene, [C]Jolene, [G]Jolene, [Am]Jolene
[G]Please don't take him [Em]even though you [Am]can
[Am]Jolene Jolene…
